Kenwood install help
 

Gonna install my Kenwood 5120 in a couple days. Questions:

1) What wire and where do you connect to the speed sensor?
2) What wire (black w/pink stripe?) and here do you connect to the reverse light?
3) Where did you mount your GPS antenna?

Thanks!

I just put a 7120 in last week.

1. the 7120 does not use a speed sensor, so I'm guessing the 5120 doesn't either.
2. unless you are hooking up a reverse camera, don't tap into the reverse wire. The reverse lead on the kenwood harness is purple, don't know the color in the truck.
3. pull out the top tray while your in there installing the radio and there is a u-shaped metal bracket under there that the gps antenna fits into perfectly. Also the gps antenna is magnetic so it stays put. That's where i put mine and my signal is just fine.

OK - well, I was just going by the Crutchfield instruction sheet. So no speed sensor to worry about, but I am installing a rear view camera so I still need to know/find that wire.

So your antenna is actually under the dash? I like that idea.

Yes, and it works great!!

Planning to do my install tonight. I will give it a try. Thanks!

Mines in my center console and it works perfectly.
